Heating oil blues
Talking about spending money, we spent some on cat supplies. We have to be patient for another 4 weeks to bring our kitten home. Last week we bought a scratching pole, a cat litterbox, a blanket for the couch and a basket and some toys. We are so looking forward for Fumeni to come home. Don't ask me where the name Fumeni comes from, it's too difficult to explain. Last Friday we surprised Eef by buying a white rabbit. She was still sad over Floor. This one is also a cutie and loves spending time on our laps.
And I payed over 70 euro (110 dollars) on about 45 liters (just under 12
gallons) of petrol. :'-(
We Americans have really been spoiled haven't we. We are bitching about
4.00 a gallon gasoline. I spent 75.00 filling my car last week. The
whole world needs to get on the alternate fuel bandwagon!! I am not sure I
agree with Bio-deisel either...that just takes land away from food farmers
so they can grow corn, flax etc to turn into fuel.
Wow! That is a lot of money for...I guess Americans need to stop
complaining. I can't wait to see pictures of the kitty!
My brother Shane just bought a house and they are already saving up money
to be able to buy oil for the winter.
Will that last a year? My house is all electric so I'm glad I don't have to
buy fuel/gas/propane to heat with. Some folks I know had natural gas bills
that were over $300 a month during the winter though so I'm glad we don't
have to buy it.
